# Importance of soft skills
One of the biggest challenges that companies have today is to ensure that the instructions of the objectives to be achieved end up being carried out as planned, and for that, you not only need the technical knowledge that anyone can bring but the soft skills that will allow you to work as a team, communicate properly, lead, among others.
But let’s be honest, many people in charge of doing these activities, at any level, do not have the necessary skills to carry out the necessary actions to fulfill these objectives.
For this, it is essential that companies provide the space to promote and develop these skills, but also each individual is responsible for doing self assessment to understand which are their more lacking areas and work on them. Knowing and managing soft skills and techniques will allow any person to climb to the top, get new opportunities, and stand out from the rest.
